Urap from Central Java, Indonesia. Blanched vegetables "dressed" with grated coconut seasoned with fresh herbs and chilies. The vegetables combination is not exact. Some people do a long beans, spinach, and bean sprouts combo. Some people do a green beans (thinly sliced on the diagonal), julienned carrots, and bean sprouts combo. For the coconut dressing, blend galangal, red chilies, garlic, and toasted shrimp paste. Sautee in a frying pan, add in chopped up palm sugar (or brown sugar if you can't get palm sugar) and add salt to taste. Mix in your freshly grated coconut and sautee on medium heat. Toss it with your blanched vegetables. It can be eaten as a veggie side dish or as a salad.
